In the context of decimal numbers, it means ENDING.
So the decimal for 1/2 is 0.5 the decimal representation TERMINATES at 1 digit after the decimal point.
The representation for 1/32 is 0.0.3125, a longer stretch after the decimal point, but still the decimal representation is TERMINATING.
There are some numbers whose decimal representation ore not terminating. If the number is rational, the represntation is recurring.
For example, 1/3 is 0.33... with the 3s going on forever. The decimal representation is said to be recurring. Similarly, 1/7 = 0.142857142857... with the number string repeating forever.
Or the number is irrational and the decimal representation is neither terminating nor recurring. It goes on forever, but never settles into a recurring pattern.

What does terminating decimal mean in math?
